TELEMAZE: A Feedback Control System for the Remote Positioning of a Distant Exploratory Vehicle.

Abstract

It is well known that feedback for on-line operation is useful only if the delay in the loop is short enough. A typical example where feedback is nearly useless is the remote control of an exploratory vehicle on a distant planet. TELEMAZE is a simulator for this situation. Guidance of the vehicle is obtained by steering an image of the vehicle through an environmental model stored in a local display system.
